From a1e28fda57e17d0b64666b1000fdc3b2d8829984 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeremy Paige Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2021 11:43:35 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Remove all links to mingw.org (GH-24552) This lease on this domain has lapsed. This not only makes these dead links, but a potential attack vector for readers of python.org as the domain can be obtained by an untrustworthy party. I considered redirecting these links to http://mingw-w64.org/ which is a maintained fork of mingw, but beyond my unfamiliarity with the exact level of compatibility, at the time of this PR that site had an expired cert and so is not much of a vulnerability fix.
